Congratulations, volunteers! In<br />
2011, probationary and active members <strong>of</strong><br />
the AGH Volunteer Committee logged over<br />
7600 volunteer hours in support <strong>of</strong> the<br />
<strong>Gallery</strong>. This is a record.<br />
Have you ever thought about why<br />
we volunteer There may be a number <strong>of</strong><br />
personal reasons that we give <strong>of</strong> our time<br />
and talents. One common reason certainly<br />
is that we have a keen interest in<br />
something, and believe that we want to<br />
contribute personally to the promotion and<br />
advancement <strong>of</strong> that interest. Those <strong>of</strong> us<br />
who volunteer at the <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Hamilton</strong> obviously have an interest in the<br />
arts, and whether or not we have a formal<br />
arts background, we want to support the<br />
programmes <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Hamilton</strong>.<br />
One <strong>of</strong> the <strong>of</strong>ficial objectives <strong>of</strong><br />
the AGH is to make the <strong>Gallery</strong> a "great<br />
place to work". To that end staff, in<br />
collaboration with members <strong>of</strong> the Volunteer<br />
Committee Executive, have developed<br />
volunteer training programs and operating<br />
manuals designed to assist volunteers in<br />
understanding the nature and expectations <strong>of</strong><br />
the volunteer placements.<br />
Recently we were required to sign a<br />
waiver, in effect signifying that we each take<br />
personal responsibility for working in<br />
accordance with AGH policies and protocols<br />
as set out in these operating and training<br />
manuals. The <strong>Gallery</strong>, for its part through<br />
these policies and protocols, is committed to<br />
providing a safe and secure working<br />
environment for all volunteers.<br />
Is the <strong>Gallery</strong> truly a "great place to<br />
work" Most <strong>of</strong> our volunteer placements are<br />
"front-line", and involve interacting with the<br />
public to provide the most pleasant AGH<br />
experience possible. Such interactions should<br />
also be as stimulating and fulfilling for us as<br />
for visitors to the <strong>Gallery</strong>. Sometimes,<br />
unfortunately, this may not be the case. I urge<br />
any <strong>of</strong> you who encounter problems in doing<br />
your volunteer job safely and securely -- and<br />
hopefully pleasurably -- to discuss the<br />
situation with your staff supervisor and / or<br />
Volunteer Committee liaison person.<br />
Where no VC liaison is currently in place,<br />
please do not hesitate to contact me<br />
directly.<br />
I trust that you found the recent<br />
accessibility training as enjoyable and<br />
informative as I did. We can all now feel<br />
more secure in dealings with visitors and<br />
others with disabilities, aware <strong>of</strong> strategies<br />
and approaches that ensure all our visitors<br />
can enjoy the <strong>Gallery</strong> with dignity.<br />
If you have any suggestions about<br />
making your volunteer role safer, more<br />
secure, more fulfilling, or more<br />
stimulating, talk to your liaison and/or<br />
supervisor and, again, please do let me<br />
know. I really would appreciate your<br />
sharing any ideas for making the <strong>Art</strong><br />
gallery <strong>of</strong> <strong>Hamilton</strong> a "greater place to<br />
w o r k " . M y e - m a i l a d d r e s s i s<br />

Cheers -- and thank you all for a<br />
great volunteer 2011 at the AGH.

Looking Back In Time Part 3<br />
AGH <strong>Art</strong> Rental and Sales<br />
Last November saw the AGH<br />
Tanenbaum Pavilion transformed into a<br />
vibrant showcase for the Fall <strong>Art</strong> Sale. This<br />
event is held twice a year, and draws<br />
hundreds <strong>of</strong> visitors to the <strong>Gallery</strong>. But art<br />
rental is available to members and<br />
corporate clients through Shop at AGH all<br />
year, and showcases a wonderful diversity<br />
<strong>of</strong> original art. These works may also be<br />
purchased.<br />
The concept <strong>of</strong> art rental and sales<br />
had its birth back in 1955 when three<br />
members <strong>of</strong> the Women’s Volunteer<br />
Committee met informally to discuss an<br />
idea they thought would benefit the <strong>Gallery</strong><br />
and the community. A small number <strong>of</strong><br />
institutions in Canada had already<br />
established picture rental loan systems for<br />
works <strong>of</strong> art by Canadian artists, and Ruth<br />
McCuaig, Kate Steiner and Janet Barber<br />
believed such a programme should be<br />
established in <strong>Hamilton</strong> through the<br />
<strong>Gallery</strong>.<br />
As a result, a larger committee was<br />
established and the ladies applied<br />
themselves to organizing the project with<br />
their characteristic zeal. Every detail and<br />
aspect had to be developed -- from<br />
transportation logistics, to cataloguing, to<br />
insurance to designing and making bags to<br />
protect the pictures. The latter involved the<br />
committee members spending hours sewing<br />
bags from yards <strong>of</strong> donated scarlet fabric<br />
and stenciling “Picture Loan, Women’s<br />
Committee" on each bag by hand.<br />
Many Canadian artists were<br />
contacted for their work, among them a<br />
new up-and-coming group known as<br />
"Painter’s Eleven", <strong>of</strong> which Jack Bush and<br />
Harold Town, now art icons, were members.<br />
I wonder what members <strong>of</strong> the<br />
founding committee would think if they had<br />
strolled through the recent Fall <strong>Art</strong> Sale or<br />
saw the new <strong>Art</strong> Rental and Sales wed site,<br />
www.aghartsales.com on which many <strong>of</strong> the<br />
current works may be viewed. I think they<br />
would be delighted.<br />

Gloria Pilot has recently joined<br />
the AGH team as interim Membership and<br />
Audience Development Manager.<br />
Born and raised in the north end<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Hamilton</strong> to immigrant Italian parents,<br />
she enjoyed growing up being surrounded<br />
by the richness <strong>of</strong> <strong>Hamilton</strong>’s Italian<br />
community.<br />
Upon graduation from the<br />
University <strong>of</strong> Guelph (1983) in Applied<br />
Nutrition, she approached the Fortino’s<br />
supermarket corporation with an idea to<br />
promote her new skills. She was hired to<br />
provide educational nutritional classes,<br />
cooking classes, and ideas on how to use<br />
newly introduced exotic foods and unique<br />
products.<br />
Her career took her in many<br />
directions including customer-service,<br />
public-relations, organizing special events<br />
such as their Heart Fund dinner, and<br />
managing specialty areas such as the Cigar<br />
Shop and the Household Products<br />
Boutique. She mentions that she even<br />
learned how to smoke a cigar. As Fortinos<br />
grew and was purchased by the Loblaws<br />
Corporation, her responsibilities also grew<br />
to include advertising, marketing, and<br />
heading a team to respond to customer<br />
satisfaction. This intense career took her<br />
on a 20 year journey.<br />
With a growing family (two<br />
young adult children), she found herself<br />
needing a break. After a brief rest time, she<br />
decided to donate her skills and passion to<br />
the Good Shepherd Centre helping with<br />
special events and fund-raising. The fundraising<br />
allowed her to see the other side <strong>of</strong><br />
the coin. Instead <strong>of</strong> providing the funds,<br />
she was now in an effort to collect funds.<br />
Coming to the AGH was an<br />
unexpected opportunity. As the interim<br />
Membership and Audience Development<br />
Manager, she hopes to have a positive<br />
impact in increasing both corporate and<br />
individual memberships. She is very<br />
impressed with the calibre <strong>of</strong> expertise,<br />
passion, and dedication <strong>of</strong> the AGH team.<br />
Her hobbies include cooking<br />
Italian, entertaining friends and family and<br />
skiing. Gloria has walked a very<br />
interesting path during her career.<br />

I would like to introduce you to<br />
Brian Winer, a fairly new member <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Film and Performance team.<br />
Brian writes: "I think that<br />
perhaps as a young child, whose parents<br />
were deeply involved in volunteer work,<br />
the idea <strong>of</strong> volunteerism became a very<br />
natural and vital part <strong>of</strong> my life. From my<br />
teen years onwards I have tried to share in<br />
various ways, the good fortune which<br />
should and can be a part <strong>of</strong> being a<br />
Canadian and a <strong>Hamilton</strong>ian.<br />
I was born in <strong>Hamilton</strong> and<br />
educated here, initially planning to pursue<br />
a career in journalism. Circumstances<br />
dictated that rather than with a pen and<br />
paper, I would find work at National Steel<br />
Car in 1971. After a short while, I became<br />
interested in the skilled trades and spent 40<br />
years at NSC in the maintenance<br />
department, specializing in hydraulic and<br />
pneumatic machinery. During this time, I<br />
married Jan and now have two daughters<br />
and three grandchildren. Along with<br />
spending time taking a seemingly infinite<br />
number <strong>of</strong> technically oriented courses at<br />
McMaster and Mohawk College, I made<br />
time for a 25 year stint in the Dundas<br />
Pipes and Drums as a piper, a credit union<br />
volunteer, and a wide assortment <strong>of</strong> other<br />
community involvements.<br />
Upon retirement, I decided to<br />
become more involved in the <strong>Art</strong>s<br />
community <strong>of</strong> <strong>Hamilton</strong>. The <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong><br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>Hamilton</strong> at that moment, literally, was<br />
holding the International Film Festival,<br />
and I was thrilled to be accepted as a<br />
volunteer. This led to an ongoing<br />
involvement with Special Events with the<br />
e n c o u r a g e m e n t o f S u s a n<br />
Kordalewski. More recently, I became a<br />
member <strong>of</strong> Film and Performance, which I<br />
shall particularly enjoy having a lifelong<br />
interest in film.<br />
G i v e n m y “ b l u e c o l l a r ”<br />
background, I admittedly wondered how<br />
I’d fit into an <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> environment.<br />
All such thoughts have disappeared – the<br />
staff and other volunteers at the AGH have<br />
been so welcoming and supportive <strong>of</strong> me<br />
and passionate <strong>of</strong> their work, I feel<br />
comfortable and proud to be a small part<br />
<strong>of</strong> it."<br />

For the year 2011, volunteers<br />
contributed 7635 hours to the AGH. This<br />
was a huge increase over the 5116 hours<br />
reported in 2010 mainly due to improved<br />
reporting and additional hours for special<br />
events such as the World Film Festival.<br />
The training shown for the past year was<br />
mainly for the "Customer Service<br />
Standard Training" requirements <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Accessibility for Ontarians with<br />
Disabilities Act. Thanks to all volunteers<br />
for reporting their hours and for their hard<br />
work.<br />

Back in 2006, Rickie McKeon<br />
made a decision: to sign-up for training as<br />
a docent at the <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Hamilton</strong>.<br />
Looking back, we were quite a few at first.<br />
In 2011, she is one <strong>of</strong> the original six left.<br />
What this nucleus lacks in number is more<br />
than made up for in quality, and Rickie is<br />
one <strong>of</strong> the best.<br />
Rickie is always willing to help<br />
out at the last minute or for a difficult-t<strong>of</strong>ill<br />
time slot. Helpfulness however, is only<br />
one <strong>of</strong> her strengths. An ability to adapt is<br />
another; Rickie is as ready to tour the<br />
rambunctious little ones as she is to take on<br />
the sometimes-challenging older students.<br />
Perhaps this flexibility is born <strong>of</strong> the<br />
“immigrant experience” as Rickie came<br />
with her family to Barry’s Bay, Ontario in<br />
the 1950s from Vienna; quite a culture<br />
shock but when young, open-minded and<br />
energetic, everything is exciting. And<br />
Rickie loves to make her varied<br />
experiences into stories - a real asset for a<br />
docent!<br />
- a true test <strong>of</strong> individual concentration and<br />
stamina - but she modestly claims not to have<br />
won any accolades. With her husband, Rickie<br />
is an avid bridge player and golfer, enjoying<br />
hiking with their beloved five-year-old<br />
border collie Skip, canoeing and crosscountry<br />
skiing. Did I mention that she is also<br />
an amazing cook And she loves art, reading,<br />
and gardening.<br />
Rickie brings to her volunteer work<br />
as a docent the variety <strong>of</strong> skills honed in her<br />
life. I am happy to have met such an<br />
interesting personality and to have the<br />
opportunity to become a friend <strong>of</strong> Rickie at<br />
the <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Hamilton</strong>.<br />
Creating a Digital<br />
Retrospective<br />
to Celebrate the AGH<br />
100th<br />
In 2008, volunteer docents Bill<br />
and Ann Manson proposed that they would<br />
be willing to research and write a history <strong>of</strong><br />
the <strong>Art</strong> <strong>Gallery</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Hamilton</strong> and its<br />
permanent collection to celebrate the 100th<br />
anniversary <strong>of</strong> the founding <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Gallery</strong><br />
in 1914.<br />
Bill, a local historian and founder<br />
<strong>of</strong> Footsteps in Time, had for some time<br />
been involved in various volunteer projects<br />
dealing with the <strong>Gallery</strong>'s history. A<br />
published author, he was also aware <strong>of</strong> the<br />
escalating costs <strong>of</strong> publishing a traditional<br />
fine art book, especially one that would<br />
feature the many significant and iconic<br />
artworks housed in the permanent<br />
collection.<br />
+Heritage, <strong>Hamilton</strong>'s only "storefront<br />
digital museum". Graham generously<br />
volunteered to turn the Manson's research<br />
and writing into a digital audio-visual<br />
program that could then be produced on<br />
DVD.<br />
The <strong>Gallery</strong> welcomed this<br />
volunteer project, and agreed to provide<br />
digital images <strong>of</strong> important works from the<br />
permanent collection, to edit the research<br />
and writing, and to produce and market the<br />
DVD.<br />
Over the past 3 years, the Mansons<br />
have been doing the research and writing,<br />
and the “script” for the digital programme<br />
is now complete. Currently plans are afoot<br />
to record the musical and narrative sound<br />
tracks using local actors who have also<br />
volunteered their time and talents.<br />
Graham Crawford has completed<br />
the visuals for two sections <strong>of</strong> the 5-part<br />
retrospective:<br />
The Blair Bruce Legacy<br />
The History <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Gallery</strong><br />
<strong>Hamilton</strong> <strong>Art</strong>ists in the Collection<br />
The Canadian Collection<br />
The European Collection<br />
This retrospective when completed<br />
in 2013 will celebrate the AGH and its<br />
permanent collection during its centennial<br />
year in 2014.<br />
Now retired from a busy schedule<br />
<strong>of</strong> teaching English as a Second Language,<br />
Rickie still works in her husband Jack’s<br />
busy accounting practice - so no tours at<br />
tax-time! The mother <strong>of</strong> three daughters,<br />
she is a loving grandmother to five<br />
grandchildren. When extolling with such<br />
passionate fondness <strong>of</strong> the youngest, Olivia<br />
in B.C., I begin to suspect she is a kindred<br />
spirit!<br />
Rickie’s life-experiences include<br />
planning for the corporate branch <strong>of</strong> the<br />
tourism industry; she especially loves<br />
Kenya. Rickie was a keen Laser boat racer<br />
Bill also wanted the retrospective<br />
to appeal to a broad audience <strong>of</strong> all<br />
backgrounds and ages, in a format that<br />
would be current and affordable. Therefore,<br />
they proposed that the retrospective be in a<br />
digital format on DVD, one that could be<br />
viewed on computers, TVs, and other<br />
electronic devices.<br />
To f a c i l i t a t e t h i s s o r t o f<br />
production, they called upon Graham<br />
Crawford, the owner <strong>of</strong> <strong>Hamilton</strong> History<br />
